But please correct me if anybody has a different opinion. SLED: - Customers use GNOME+pidgin or KDE+kopete. In both cases, opening the appropriate keyring happens automatically during login. - Customers want to store IM passwords really safe. openSUSE: - Users use arbitrary combinations of pidgin and desktop environment. In some of these combinations, pidgin requires extra password to unlock the keyring and it is not possible to skip this dialog. - Encrypted local storage of passwords is not a top priority. Related discussion: bug 186189 It is marked as fixed, but I think that it is not. The current solution - KDE/GNOME unlocks its own keyring on login, other environments don't unlock anything, is far from an optimal solution. The same problems affects other users of keyrings: - evolution outside GNOME (but how many people do it?) - FATE outside KDE -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
